Hi Joerii,
I am glad that you listen to some of the things we supporters bring up here.
One of these is obviously you also deem important to do things now rather than later and that you have 1 or 2 months available.
Afterwards you can lay back and enjoy the music.

It's a common misconception that all coin swill be mined in a few years. Maybe this needs to be clarified in the OP. Here's what Hiro said about it :
It is not clear - I see the following only:
Vital Statistics
60 Second blocks
400 Coins a block
Subsidy at 840,000 block (~1.6 years)
Total Coins 672m
Client Port 9348
RPC Port 9347
Info is not sufficient at all! Sorry, but I have very good incentive that HIROcoin is successful, so I have to be critical a little bit -> it looks like sloppy work. NO detailed information about the coin whatsoever, even here in bitcointalk, not even on the website. Keep investors/miners informed, pls. How can I interpret "Subsidy at 840k block (about 1.6 years)? What subsudy, what's going to happen? How can I know that reward is going to be halved then? Then later how is halving going to proceed further? Look at that Groestlcoin diagram:
http://coinia.net/groestlcoin/reward.htmlPerfect. How hard is to do something like this?
Website and its content just don't speak value right now. Also 1st page of this thread should mirror the most important info about the coin on the website.
Actually look better at the Groestlcoin website - a direct competitor of yours -> all the info I would like to know about the coin and then some. Just an hour of work - to just bring the facts. Is it that hard?
http://www.groestlcoin.org/As you see from Groestlcoin the perfect website doesn't transpire in price/value by investors as the price of GRS is also pretty low, but it's a MUST, a milestone that website and 1st page in bitcointalk are perfect in appearance and content - BOTH.
DarkSend is very ambitious. Being anonymous is not what we are trying to achieve, though. It doesn't fit our goals and objectives, and anonymity is not something we want to be associated with, for public image reasons. Darkcoin found a nice niche, we'll let them have it. Our goals are different.
OK, I respect that reply!
But...what are your goals, I don't know them, and I shouldn't be required to register on HIROcoin website to find out what they are or use the search machine in the forum. It should be up there on the website. I am sorry but I don't see your mission and vision on the website or here. It should up there for everybody to see....easily.
And the mission should be something of value, and different from airdropping 5% of coins to the population of XXX, or giving away 2.5% of coins market cap to science or environment. Everybody knows that these ares require billions and billions of $ and even governments are reluctant to take care of them properly.
If you spot someone who's using an old logo, kindly point it out to them. It's the same amount of work as letting us now Smiley We do our best but can't catch them all. thanks for pointing this out though, we have to pay more attention there.
I will. Already messaged 1 site with the old logo of Godzilla..
Better, how ? Please tell me where we are failing. There is a difference between "listening well" and "doing whatever is asked" you know. Wink
I do it already. I registered here just to be able to share my thoughts and ideas about this very coin - HIROcoin.
We believe there are better ways to become more attractive to investors. Adding to the utility of the coin, more user friendliness, making Hirocoin available to the masses, etc. Messing with the coins reward structure is simply NOT negotiable.
I respect that you are resolved about the coins reward structure. Utility of the coin, user friendliness - great! Making HIRO available to the masses - what do you mean exactly? I believe the latter will happen on its own without much interference the more people value the coin. And stuff like websites accepting HIRO too (through Bitpay or Prypto or whatever) would be nice bonuses. For now efforts should be focused on creating value within the coin. The contents, features, the message, the mission. The inherent, core virtues and value should be further developed.
Agree with you on this 100% Of course, we understand this. Right now we are hanging in there waiting for two things :
1) miners running away from scrypt based mining into our arms
2) the market will notice the new things we develop and interest will pick up again.
Marketing, PR and Development will achieve this.
Sounds good. But bear in mind cryptocommunity is very smart and they don't go for something if it's not valuable. So, real value is what the bell rings for.
Miners will run away from scrypt, that is for sure, but going into your arms is not a sure thing at all.
There are many other scrypt-resistant coins like Scrypt-N, other X11 and even a X13 coin. Miners and investors come to a coin if they believe that a coin has potential to rise in value in the future. And only then.
See this:
http://x11mining.n00bsys0p.co.uk/Right now HIRO is one of the least lucrative X11 coins there. That should change. Look at the absurd difficulty of DARK (and the higher it goes, the least the payout becomes), and it is STILL MORE profitable than HIRO for miners. For 10MH/s of mining power, you get 0.622DRK and 1700HIRO per day -> that is 2733 times difference. And DRK has 22m coins, HIRO has 672m coins - only 30 times more. Meaning DARKcoin network is about 91 times more valuable than HIROcoin network at the moment. That should change if we all want the HIROcoin to succeed.
Also, do you know that in Mintpal there are 400 coins waiting to be accepted at the marketplace. That is FOUR HUNDRED coins! And maybe the same number not listed at all anywhere. Close to 1000 coins waiting for a piece of the pie - people's fiat and BTC.
Money is only the reward for past efforts.
No, there's also friendship, experience and the joy of creating
I said money is just a reward for PAST efforts, not the ONLY reward for past efforts. Regarding friendship, experience, joy of creating - maybe..for you, but for investors in the coin, it's their money on the line, their effort at work for hard-earned money and they worry much more about the performance of the coin than the experience and joy of creating stuff
Maybe you can learn a lot from the great Stoics like Seneca ! And are we being stubborn ? Or loyal to our investors and each other ? Many dev teams simply split when their coin doesn't make them rich overnight....
Actually I have always wondered how dev teams can get rich overnight, if there are no bounties, IPOs or premines. It's not possible, they have to mine themselves or buy from the exchange like everybody else. Well, I have to learn from Seneca, because I bought a lot of coins at higher rate believing in the coin and I have nothing left than wait for better times, and probably help the team out one way or another. I really hope you have also some great ideas for the future of the coin. I really do hope.
Yes sir, that's one of my mantra's ! We are doing it Smiley We'd love to do it with you ! Er.... you know what I mean. Come join the team !
I will continue providing valuable ideas. That's for sure.
Pls. don't get offended by my criticism - I really want HIROcoin to succeed, and if it doesn't do it this summer, it will probably never will. So we should act in an emergency mode already.
Best!
